Iskalde Grøss #6 [1988]

In the quiet, moonlit sprawl of a rural American town, a string of brutal killings on full moon nights sends the sheriff into a frenzy of fear and violence. When a Hungarian immigrant and his two sons arrive, the sheriff swiftly brands them as suspects—only for the younger son to suspect the real monster wears the badge. As secrets fester and trust shatters, the boys devise a desperate plan to unmask the truth, unaware that the beast they hunt may already be among them. *Månelyst!* is a chilling tale of suspicion, identity, and the shadows that hide in plain sight.

In "Knappøye!", a young boy born blind experiences his first true Christmas when he finally sees—only to confront the cruel reality of his stepfather’s hatred, the loss of his mother, and the terrifying fate that follows. After his mother’s death, the boy’s stepfather destroys his beloved teddy bear, ripping out its button eyes, but the boy’s vision returns in a final, haunting moment.

In this dark twist on a classic tale, Tornerose isn’t just resting—she’s hiding. A young woman with a cursed slumber, she awakens only at night, drawn to the moon and the secrets it casts in shadow. As the world above her stirs with daylight, her true nature stirs with it, and the line between dream and hunger blurs.

In "Badet," a tormented servant exacts a chilling revenge on the silver mine owner who destroyed his family—after the man unknowingly worked his younger brother to death and shot his parents. With quiet fury, he fills the master’s bath with piranha, turning a moment of supposed relaxation into a deadly reckoning.

In "Bank i bordet!", a man tormented by the imagined pulse of a hidden heartbeat begins to unravel, convinced he’s living out Poe’s chilling tale. As suspicion mounts and the police investigate, a shocking revelation surfaces: the source of the sound may be far more literal than he ever feared.

In "Malstrøm," a young woman is tormented by three unsettling figures who demand her name, plunging her into a series of nightmarish trials—boiling water, freezing ice, electric shocks, and a shrinking room—each more disorienting than the last. As her mind fractures under the strain, she is told she’s an inmate in an asylum, but when the voices return and she remembers the truth, her fear twists into something far darker.

In "Vampen!", a man and his wife vacation in Europe, where he’s drawn into a dangerous romance with a mysterious woman who reveals herself to be a vampire. When he rejects her, she vows to kill him before letting him return to his wife—only to find that his wife has already been taken by the same dark force.
